Echoes of our hearts

Sometimes we close our eyes and just listen to
the echoes of our hearts. We all fall inlove and
there are times when we love so much that we
lose ourselves in our own emotion. More often than
not, we wonder why there are love that grows, and
love that grows cold. We would start to search for
answers and try to find where love has gone wrong.
But in the end, we find ourselves where we started
for we cannot question love when it has its own
reasons. Love will always be as it always has
been silent, mysterious and deeply profound.

Many of us believe that love is forever, that love
never dies, only to be disillusioned in the end when
we found our hands empty and our hearts longing.
We mistakenly have looked at love as a need to be
fulfilled. But love is only a gift given to us. We
should not hold it in our hands for we may never
find the strength to let it go when it decides to
leave. We should only embrace its warmth and
glow while it last and then freely open our arms
when its time to say goodbye.

When we fall in love with someone, we dont want
that feeling to end for it is everything that we
wanted to be. We pray that love will stay and grow
in our hearts. But, if it doesnt then we should
never let our lives be taken by it, for life should not
end where heartaches begin.

There is always a reason why we have to move on.
When we have to say goodbye to the feelings we
wanted to stay forever, let us not wave our hands
with the heavy heart. For love will have to set its
wings free and find that place where it belongs. We
may have lost it but then again, when we close our
eyes and listen to the echoes of our hearts, we will
hear that feeling resounding silently forever.

Then well know that it has never left us, for the
good that we have become because of love will
always stay. It will always be there reminding us
that we should be thankful and happy, not because
we have lost love, but because for once in our
lives, that feeling lived in our hearts and made us
happy.
